[lbo-talk] What the U.S. can do about Israel

[123hop at comcast.net]

I would offer every Israeli settler U.S. citizenship and relocation expenses if they were willing to leave. And for the $$, i would use the U.S. $$ currently being used to subsidize settlement and military spending.

Is the correlation of forces so finely balanced right now that a mere US aid cutoff would immediately result in Iranian regional domination? Do you really believe US policy is only trying to maintain an equal regional power balance between Israel and Iran? That's not how I see it - to me, it looks like Israel clearly dominates and the US, rather than balancing off that lopsided domination, is propping it up. (That's also Walt's position.)
